Buy Parasite Positive by Westerfeld, Scott (ISBN: ) from Amazon's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. In Peeps Cal Thompson loses his virginity to a "peep" (parasite positive) and has been infected by a parasite called Echinococcus cannibillus, which turns its hosts insane and ravenous for human flesh and blood, so in a sense they aren't really vampires, but the other symptoms of the infection (aversion to light and crucifixes) are consistent with the myth. Scott Westerfeld - who you may know as the author of the Uglies series - somehow manages to make the parasite that affects these peeps semi-realistic, and that's no mean feat. The story follows Cal Thompson, a nineteen year old boy who has had the parasite for a year when the novel begins.
